Eric - You are at the stage where spending $25 on a one month membership to kelbytraining.com will be well worth the time and money.
There are several video tutorials on each of the products mentioned. The Lightroom series by Matt Kloskowski are excellent. You can also download free, 30 day, trial versions of the products from the adobe website.
